Thoughts from White Sox beat writer Scott Merkin

Owens moves on

After being outrighted to Triple-A Charlotte prior to Friday’s game, Jerry Owens declared free agency in lieu of accepting the assignment. Owens had one hit in 12 at-bats during his most recent and apparently final stint with the White Sox, to go with one stolen base.

Personally, I enjoyed covering Owens. He is a good kid who probably needs a change of scenery, at this point. Of course, that’s not to say the White Sox did not give him plenty of chances to succeed.

It’s too bad about Jerry, although I am glad he was able to move on. I saw talent in Jerry Owens, but it is up to him whether or not he puts it all together. He was given opportunities by the Sox and Kenny Williams, but it’s too bad because boy could he run! Good luck Jerry!
